Pulling together the Holiday Collective Show is
always a creative puzzle, as we look for the pieces that fit.This year sustainable design seems to be a
constant theme at the Fifth Annual Holiday Collective Show.There is a mix of original art and handmade
designs but also many works made from sustainable materials including recycled fabrics,
industrial parts and even silver and gold.

This year, as well, the show has a new and easier–to-get-to
home.We are still in the Queen West Art
District but after four years at the Artscape Triangle Gallery we’ve moved to
Artscape Youngplace, the grand arts centre at 180 Shaw Street.

The show will run from Wednesday December 17 to
Monday December 22.Keep checking back
as we give you an advance look of the show.

Calling all artists and artisans. We’re getting ready for the 5th
Annual Holiday Collective Show. This
year the show will be featured in one of the city’s newest art centres,
Artscape Youngplace on Shaw Street near Queen.

The six-day show runs from Wednesday December 17 to
Monday December 22. Best of all, you don’t
have to be on site since we run and manage the show. The cost? It's about $25 a day.

We’d like to
see your creative textiles, jewelry and handmade designs and original art which is 18
inches or less.

If you are interested in being part of the show,
you need to forward three images of your work, a description and price to
thecollectiveshow (at) gmail (dot) com.
